Solid state and crystal structures

Fourteen topics, transcribed from your 23-page notes and checked against standard sources.

From the 23-page handwritten PDF: solid state, from crystalline and amorphous solids through close packing, ionic structures, defects, perovskite and spinel. Fourteen topic pages, in the order the notes take them.

  1. Crystalline and amorphous solids
  2. Lattice and unit cells
  3. Symmetry and the seven crystal systems
  4. Atoms per unit cell: SC, BCC, FCC
  5. Close packing in 1D and 2D
  6. HCP and CCP in three dimensions
  7. Voids and the radius ratio rule
  8. Diamond cubic
  9. Ionic crystals of AB type
  10. Ionic crystals of AB2 type
  11. Point defects
  12. Perovskite and ilmenite
  13. Goldschmidt tolerance factor
  14. Normal and inverse spinel: CFSE
